BOXING DAY RACING STARTS IN

Thursday 26 December 2024

The Rand Farm Park Boxing Day at the Races

 

As far as Christmas traditions go, Boxing Day at Market Rasen Racecourse has become a ritual for families across Lincolnshire & beyond to escape the house after Christmas Day to come together and enjoy a thrilling festive day out.  

 

Hospitality is limited for this fixture. Please contact Shannen.williamson@thejockeyclub.co.uk or alternatively, call us on 01673 843434.

 

TRAVEL & ARRIVAL INFORMATION

 

Following feedback and consultation with local authorities, our Boxing Day at the Races will have enhanced traffic management in place this year. This will not only see increased signage and the number of marshals but new routes of approach to the racecourse, to help prevent queuing and congestion in Market Rasen town centre. We would ask all racegoers to please follow the yellow event signage to help us deliver the best possible journey for everyone. Our car park attendants will be here to help you get in and out as quickly as possible so please follow their directions when parking.

ENTERTAINMENT

In between the racing, there’s plenty to do for everyone on Boxing Day.

 

THE GRINCH:

Watch out for The Grinch and make sure he doesn’t steal Christmas! Head over to the Festive Marquee on the Red Rum Lawn (next to the pre parade ring) and meet The Grinch for a festive photo! Look out for him in and around the racecourse throughout the day.

 

SING-ALONG IN THE COUNTY LOUNGE!

Our County Lounge offers a warm and cosy environment to watch the racing, with incredible views of the track and winning line. Inside the marquee you’ll find a live pianist playing all the Christmas sing-along classics. Pick up a song sheet and join in. Does it get any more festive than this?!

 

NON-STOP KIDS ENTERTAINMENT:

In the two hours before racing, the kids can join in on an exciting entertainment show from one of the country’s best entertainment company! Non-Stop Kids have perfomed for professional footballers, television presenters and brands such as Disney, McDonald’s, BBC, Butlins and Alton Towers! In fact they’re so good, that they are the resident entertainers at Cadbury World!

It's guaranteed festive fun!

 

FACE PAINTING:

Our popular face painters are back for Boxing Day, and this year, you’ll find them in the festive marquee again (on the Red Rum Lawn). Make sure you share a photo of your face painting with us on our social media channels!

 

ARTS & CRAFTS:

Get your craft on with LIVES in the festive marquee! Let the kids make a Boxing Day at the Races souvenir to take home or perhaps a New Year card to give to a loved one.

 

PHOTO-OPPORTUNITIES!

Make sure you snap a photo with our Rand Farm Park backdrop and share with us on social media!
